Human Factors & Flight Deck Design Engineer at AXISCADES — NeverHard
Human Factors & Flight Deck Design Engineer at AXISCADES in Canada. Apply on NeverHard.
Company
AXISCADES
Location
Canada
Type
internship
Location:
Montreal, QC or Wichita, KS
Work Model:
Hybrid – minimum 2 days onsite per week, preferably 3
We are looking for experienced
Human Factors / Ergonomics professionals
to support aerospace flight deck design and development programs in
Montreal and Wichita
.
This is an opportunity to work on the design and evaluation of aircraft flight deck interfaces, combining
Human Factors, ergonomics, engineering, aircraft systems and pilot/user experience
.
What You’ll Do
Depending on your area of expertise, you will contribute to:
Flight deck and cockpit
Human Factors and User-Centered Design
activities.
Physical and/or cognitive ergonomics analysis and evaluation.
Cockpit geometry, interfaces, components and control placement.
3D modeling, simulation, rig testing and product evaluation.
Flight deck HMI design, workflow, workload and usability analysis.
Requirements development, task analysis and human error analysis.
Prototyping and scenario-based flight deck/UX evaluations.
Interaction with
flight crews/pilots
to assess physical and cognitive usability.
Supporting certification and compliance activities related to Human Factors.
Collaborating with engineering, avionics, manufacturing and other Human Factors specialists.
The ideal candidate will bring:
4–15+ years of relevant experience
, depending on level.
Strong practical experience in
Human Factors / Ergonomics
.
Aerospace/aviation experience, preferably involving
flight decks or cockpits
.
Understanding of aircraft systems, avionics and/or flight operations.
Experience considering the
pilot/user perspective
when developing engineering solutions.
Practical industrial experience — purely academic/theoretical Human Factors experience is not sufficient.
Strong communication, teamwork, initiative and technical judgment.
Physical Ergonomics Backgrounds
Particularly relevant experience includes:
Anthropometry, reach, strength and vision.
Cockpit geometry and physical usability.
Digital human/mannequin modeling.
Component and control placement.
3D modeling tools such as
CATIA, NX, Jack or Rhinoceros
.
Flight Deck / Cognitive Human Factors Backgrounds
Cognitive ergonomics, workload and situation awareness.
Task and human error analysis.
Flight Management Systems, SATCOM, audio and avionics.
Flight operations and certification.
User-centered design, simulation and usability testing.
Important
We are
not looking for generic occupational/workplace ergonomics or purely avionics/system engineering profiles
. The strongest candidates will have experience applying Human Factors directly to
aviation, flight deck or similarly complex human-machine environments
.
Candidates from other complex transport environments may also be considered where their Human Factors experience is highly transferable.
French is an asset; English is required.
If you have hands-on experience designing or evaluating systems from both the
pilot/user perspective and the Human Factors engineering perspective
, we would like to hear from you.
